Ever wonder how we pull off something as massive as the MuchMusic Video Awards? Well, airing tonight at 10 p.m. ET on Much is the MuchNews MMVA Behind the Scenes Special, where we give viewers an exclusive look at what goes into making the biggest show in Canada.

See exclusive backstage interviews with co-hosts the Jonas Brothers, Lady Gaga, Billy Talent, Kim Kardashian, Alexisonfire and yes, we even got Twilight hunk Taylor Lautner. We also follow MMVA winners the Midway State on the biggest night of their life, give two lucky Jo-Bros fans a special MMVA makeover, and visit with the VJs as they battle the rain for rehearsal time.

Plus, there is the fan frenzy, from the overwhelming response to the wristband line-up to the pandemonium that ensued when the brotherly co-hosts took the stage and Lady Gaga’s bra ignited.

So check out all of the drama, excitement and a few surprises tonight on Much at 10 p.m. ET.

News for Monday: Post-MMVAs Tiredness Edition

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

* If you were dead, or otherwise occupied, and you missed last night’s big MMVA show, well, sucks to be you, Fred. I’m kidding, I’m kidding, you can watch the whole thing here.

* Lady Gaga reveals why she blew up her rack last night!

* Not everyone was enjoying the good mood last night: gossip-blogger Perez Hilton got into a big old brawl with The Black Eyed Peas, specifically Fergie, and possibly Will.i.am. No one is really quite sure what happened for surezies right now, we’ll let you know when we know!

* Rolling Stone has done a super-surprising Fred Durst interview - I know, who wudda thunkit? - where he talks about not liking Limp Bizkit fans, and <3ing The Cure.

* Contrary to what we told you the other day, Trent Reznor has climbed back on the Twitter wagon.

* I Fought the Law, and the Law Won: Not saying, just saying that Rihanna is on-call to testify in Chris Brown’s court hearing, possibly even today.

And the Winners Are… (cue drum roll)

I’m trying very hard to contain my excitement here, so you’ll have to excuse me if I crack a little.

THE MMVAs ARE ONLY FOUR DAYS AWAAAY! Your favourite artists are probably at home right now, packing their suitcases (or in the case of Lady Gaga, her box of wigs) and getting ready to come join us on Sunday for the biggest thing since the best thing ever (cheese)!

And oh, did I mention we’ve got TWO more PAIRS of wristbands for ya?

Subterfuge: Alternate Reality Indie Nominations for the MMVAs

Monday, June 15th, 2009

I’ve got this friend, we’ll call him Tim, who sometimes talks about what he’d do if he took over the world. Mostly, I say “Tim, you sound like a crazy fascist!”. But on occasion, I wonder what I’d do if I ruled the world. After “House Full of Kittens”, I think the first thing I’d do would be to suggest my OWN nominations (and categories) for this year’s MMVAs. ‘Cause you know, there’s a lot of good stuff that didn’t make it up there.

If you think I’m wrong about these picks, why don’t you try and correct me? Huh, punk? I DARE YOU!

Right, so this is where things go from crazy to balls-out insane. Like, start inventing the most powerful earplugs known to man. Start preparing yourself for weird tremors in your belly. Start practicing your mobscene protection tactics. Start forgetting about the concept of personal space. Things are about to get legendary.
